Abstract: An authenticated, ID-based private/public key pair, with a self-certified public key, is generated using Kummer arithmetic without bilinear pairings. Two or more parties can generate such key pairs and use them as their respective long-term key pairs which, when combined with the parties' short-term key pairs, can allow the parties to establish an authenticated, short-term shared key. Some embodiments are suitable for connected vehicles communicating with each other and/or with other systems. Other features are also provided.

Abstract: In a vehicle-to-everything (V2X) technology environment, systems and methods are provided for extending the distribution of activation codes (ACs) in an Activation Codes for Pseudonym Certificates (ACPC) system, in a privacy-preserving manner, to a unicast mode of communication. In this unicast ACPC (uACPC), in some embodiments, the ACs are distributed by the back-end system via a unicast channel upon the receipt of the vehicle's direct request for its respective ACs. In some embodiments, uACPC can leverage edge computing architecture for low latency delivery of certificate revocation lists (CRLs) and higher availability for the distribution of ACs.

Abstract: According to some embodiments, systems and methods are provided for revoking one or more of a plurality of entities in a vehicular public-key infrastructure. The systems and methods balance privacy and efficiency by distributing activation codes according to various approaches, including a direct request approach, a fixed-size subset approach, and a variable-size subset approach.
